All eyes will be on World No.1 Belgium, who start as one of the favourites to win the Euro 2020. The Roberto Martinez side heads into the tournament on the back of a perfect qualification process, bagging 30 out of a possible 30 points. They would look to redeem themselves after suffering a shocking 1-3 defeat the hands of Wales in the Euro 2016 quarterfinals. The European giants are on a nine-game unbeaten streak.
